Hims' strongest revenue growth driver has been the sale of cheaper copycats of the weight-loss drugs, thanks to Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly products being listed on drug shortage lists. When these drugs were removed from the list, the sale of copycats ceased to be legal, and the company's stock plummeted by over 62% from its February highs at its worst point. Currently, the company's stock has returned to around its February levels.
